Even after the growth in memory baseline, µBlock's _own memory_ footprint is still quite smaller than that of Adblock Plus -- once the garbage collector does its job. +1. µBlock's much smaller _contributed memory_ footprint to web pages is much smaller than that of ABP - The contributed footprint to web pages is part of the memory footprint of the web pages themselves - As opposed to an extension's own memory footprint, visible using Chromium's _"Task Manager"_, the contributed memory footprint to web pages cannot be easily seen by users - Though this measure is not readily visible, it's where you get the biggest bang for the buck with µBlock relative to ABP -- because µBlock **does not** inject thousands of CSS rules into pages and embedded frames.
